I need to print outlines in a more compact form than LaTeX lists ordinarily
provide. I often have used the paralist package, although it conflicts with
some other packages. How can I alter the line spacing for the lists
directly, for export?
I found this suggestion, and I was going to use #+LATEX_HEADER:, but then it
occured to me that I don't have a way to specifiy that "my_enumerate" would
be used instead of "enumerate".
This is the code I found on line:
%
% this makes list spacing much better.
%
\newenvironment{my_enumerate}{
\begin{enumerate}
\setlength{\itemsep}{1pt}
\setlength{\parskip}{0pt}
\setlength{\parsep}{0pt}}{\end{enumerate}
}
Thank you for any suggestions.

I can see now that the LaTeX source for my outline is not in list form, but
in sections. When I reformat to use list notation in org, the following do
not change anything in the pdf that is output. Interestingly, when I export
LaTeX into a buffer latex then complains about too many nested levels, while
the pdf is exported ok.
Perhaps there is another length parameter I can change to make the outlines
based on sectioning more compact.

I had used the following:
#+LATEX_HEADER:\addtolength{\itemsep}{-4pt}
and, previously:
#+LATEX_HEADER:\setlength{\itemsep}{1pt}
Neither of them makes a difference.

I apologize for sending so many updates.
I was able to get the feature I desire by adding the following to the top of
the exported LaTeX and replacing "itemize" with "packed_item".
\newenvironment{packed_item}{
\begin{itemize}
\setlength{\itemsep}{1pt}
\setlength{\parskip}{0pt}
\setlength{\parsep}{0pt}
}{\end{itemize}}
It would be preferable by far to be able to get this effect straightaway in
exported pdfs.
But I think I need to change my mode of outlining or else find a way to
reduce the spacing in sectioning-based outlines in the exported LaTeX.
Perhaps a macro to convert from ** based outlines to plain list (-)
outlines.

You can now (latest git) define an environment like you do above
Then set
(setq org-export-latex-low-levels '("\\begin{myenv}" "\\end{myenv}" "\
\item %s"))
Now this environment will be used for the lower levels of LaTeX export.
Note that you can use
#+OPTIONS: H:0
to force even the top-level headings into this environment.
